Hey Everyone, As many of you know, Halo 3 Forge was the first feature ever brought into the Halo franchise so that you could stay away from modding maps and having to play the older games (Although modders still kept on doing their jobs). When Crytec announced and showed the Far Cry 2 forge tool, everyone was amazed to know that this tool beat Halo 3's Forge so bad it was not even funny. I myself was amazed by the amount of things you could do with your map, simply they put it like this... They give you a VERY big square block of land, nice, flat, and well... green. You can then add mountains, forests, buildings, rivers, textures, etc. Basically, if your good at Halo 3 Forge I want to see you make a map in the FC2 Forge... it's good, I mean too good. It's going to get to the point where Forgehub is probably going to add FC2 to their forge list. After thinking about this for a while, I noticed that some people liked the idea of having to learn and skill yourself to make the good maps you see in H3 today. Some others that are not that good adapted the FC2 Forge and said "When this game comes out, I'm quiting H3 Forge forever!!! But not the multiplayer " People started thinking and designing their FC2 maps on paper with a key and everything so that when the game came out they could simply just look at the map and make it. What really surprises me is the simplicity of the FC2 Forge. There is not interlocking and stuff but it's still really good. The maps are for 16 players max and they are really big which will make for some long matches if your map is designed right. If you want to get more information on the FC2 Forge then go to YouTube, but the main purpose of this thread is to put FC2 and H3 Forging into one... one big beautiful thing that is really hot. Discuss your ideas and opinion about both Forge tools (make sure that you know your info about FC2 Forge, if not you'll look really stupid when you say something really random on a internations website forum thread). I made this post before I went to school so please wait for replies from me until 4:30 PM Eastern US Time. Thank you very much and I want to see some good replies. Because as everyone knows, this is Forgehub not Halo 3 Forgehub (or am I wrong because theres Halo 3 pics all over the website, no I'm not, thats because currently only Halo 3 has the advanced forging and also all of the Far Cry games as well, but I put H3 and FC2 since they both have the best forges up till now.) Let the replies roll in!!! Matty: Don't write in white.
STOP MAKING FC2 THREADS HOLY ****. We'll be able to compare once fc2 is actually release, and when we get the map sandbox for forge. Until then try to stay in one of the other 40 far cry threads.
Oh, and could you not use white font? I'm using the old school theme, and I can't see a thing when white text is used.
I'm locking this for a number of reasons. 1 - It's been discussed many times before 2 - They are both incomparable, and heavily opinionated 3 - It's going to end in flaming.
